Have a few major research ones to do which should be good. I am back out on placement now for 6 weeks. This time I am in a residential Nursing Home for Elderly and palliative care. I hope to gain as much information as I can about Elderly care and especially about Dementia. Alzheimer's disease,  Vascular dementia, Dementia with Lewy bodies, Frontotemporal dementia, Parkinson’s.....I will be a sponge gathering all the info I can on these terrible conditions.
